Last Puzzle & Testament
New York: Bantam. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 2000. First Edition. Hardcover. Monor amount of edwear at tail of d j . . 352 pages. A Puzzle Lady Mystery No. 2. Emma Hurley died the way she lived--surrounded by an air of mystery with only her servants at her side. That is until she finally passes away.and her greedy heirs crawl out of the woodwork to stake a claim to Emma's fortune. But unlike most people Emma was not content to leave behind a simple will. Instead her final testament includes of all things a clever puzzle.one to be given only to her living heirs. The first one to solve the puzzle will inherit Emma's entire estate; everyone else will be left with a pittance. Complicating matters further the will stipulates that Cora Felton--local celebrity and famed author of a popular syndicated crossword puzzle column--must referee the contest. Unfortunately Cora knows far more about the fine art of mixing a martini than creating--let alone solving--crossword puzzles. It's Cora's niece Sherry who's the brains behind Cora's "Puzzle Lady" persona. And it's up to Sherry to unravel the bizarre riddle Emma Hurley engineered before her death. For soon it's plain that Emma's game is one without a clear winner.and that the players could lose far more than they ever imagine. Before long would-be heirs are scouring every nook and cranny of the town as they scramble to solve a forty-year-old puzzle while the Puzzle Lady herself adds to the chaos with her less-than-sobering antics. Meanwhile Sherry has some pressing problems of her own: Her romantic interest in a mild-mannered local reporter is turning into an unpleasant love triangle--one that involves a glamorous young lawyer. And when one of the participants in Emma's contest is knifed to death the last thing Sherry needs is amorous advances--especially when they're coming from the number one suspect in the crime. .

HAMILTON E.
Translation of the Letters of a Hindoo Rajah. Written previous to, and during the Period of his Residence in England. To which is prefixed a preliminary Dissertation on the History, Religion and Manners of the Hindoos. IN FULL TREE CALF
2 vols., 8vo., Second Edition, on laid paper, two early nineteenth signatures on titles, later signature on blank preliminary of both volumes; handsomely bound in early nineteenth century full tree calf, sides with decorative floral frame border in gilt, backs gilt extra, second and fourth compartments with red and green leather labels lettered and tooled in gilt, all other compartments ruled with Greek key and floral rolls enclosing a gilt star device, doublures tooled in gilt and blind, a clean, crisp and most attractive copy. Dedicated to Warren Hastings, late Governor General of Bengal, Hamilton's first novel appeared in 1796 to considerable acclaim. It satirises society through the device of Oriental letters on the model of works by Montesquieu and Goldsmith, its theme being that women also can be both strong and able. The Preface, based partly on her brother's experiences in India, is both extensive and erudite. Elizabeth Hamilton (1758-1816), Irish novelist, essayist and poet. Born in Belfast, she moved as a child to Stirling, later to London, and finally to Edinburgh in 1804. She directed all her works to her own sex whose qualities of mind she admired and promoted. She was praised by Maria Edgeworth and, famously, by Jane Austen who was pleased that such 'a respectable writer' had read Sense and Sensibility. Block, p.96; Todd, p.147. See CBEL III, p.398.
